What Men Do For Love aims to highlight the danger of a broken male ego, whilst delving into the fragility of a man’s state of mind in today’s pressured society. It follows the story of two different men from different walks of life — one the victim of infidelity and the other the culprit who has inflicted it upon him.
The short film is about love, loss, male mental health and ego — told through two men who are very different but in some ways the same. The film is due to be shot over the summer of 2023, with £10,000 required for all costs by 31st May, and will be showcased at major film festivals internationally throughout 2024 and 2025.

Sai Karan Talwar said: “The reception for our first production as a team was immense — even greater than anticipated. Ghanimah, a hard-hitting story about a young British Muslim who signed up to the British Army, went down a storm at film festivals and was very impactful — making the audience think and question things.”
